Live In 1967 is a live album by British blues rock band John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, released in October 2015 via Forty Below Records.

Throughout the 1960s, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers acted as a finishing school for the leading British blues-rock musicians of the era. Guitarists Eric Clapton, Peter Green, and Mick Taylor joined his band in a remarkable succession in the mid-'60s, fine tuning their playing with Mayall before going on to join Cream, Fleetwood Mac, and the Rolling Stones, respectively. John McVie and Mick Fleetwood, Jack Bruce, Aynsley Dunbar, Dick Heckstall-Smith, Andy Fraser (of Free), John Almond, and Jon Mark also played and recorded with the band for varying lengths of times in the '60s.

Taken from tapes that were left unheard for almost 50 years, made when a Dutch fan snuck a one channel reel to reel tape recorder into five of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers' London concerts, Live In 1967 offers a rare and exciting glimpse into music history. Featuring the Fleetwood Mac lineup of Peter Green, John McVie and Mick Fleetwood, who were only in the Bluesbreakers together for three months, the tapes have been restored by Mayall with the technical assistance of Eric Corne of Forty Below Records.

About Live In 1967, Eric Corne said "While the source recording was very rough and the final result is certainly not hi-fidelity, it does succeed in allowing us to hear how spectacular these performances are".
